Alpha Testing

Join the run.

Help test LockeBox while the MVP is still being built. Alpha builds are for players who are comfortable with rough edges and useful bug reports.

The alpha will focus on emulator stability, save handling, tracker flow, encounter logging, Windows and Android install behavior, and iOS device feedback through TestFlight.

Install

Alpha files will live here as builds are published. Windows and Android use hosted downloads, while iOS testers join through Apple TestFlight.

Supported Games

Use the alpha with supported Gen III runs.

What to test

  • App launch, update, and install behavior.
  • ROM loading with files you legally provide.
  • Save state behavior, in-game saves, and resume flow.
  • Tracker flow for team, routes, deaths, badges, and level caps.
  • Anything that feels slow, confusing, or brittle.

How to report issues

Email [email protected] with your platform, build version, what you expected, what happened, and the shortest steps that reproduce the issue.

Do not send ROMs, BIOS files, or copyrighted game files in bug reports.

LockeBox alpha builds are unfinished software. Back up your saves before testing, expect bugs, and only use game files and BIOS files that you are legally allowed to use.
